This is using the C++11 override keyword to make the compiler check to
ensure that we are correctly overriding virtual methods when we mean to.
Currently this will not compile without C++11. However, we are planning
on moving to C++11 very soon, and we can fix the macro if we don't.

The VTKM_SUPPRESS_EXEC_WARNINGS should go before the template keyword,
but on a couple of methods in FunctionInterfaceDetailPre.h.in it was
after the template keyword.
Add pragmas to disable warnings 4244 and 4800 on Visual Studio when
compiling third party libraries. This gets around some warnings inside
the thrust library.
This is a little tricky since they don't seem to have considered that
you will have files in both the source and build directory or that the
file locations will not match exactly with the install locations.
The test is a simple CMake script that finds all files in the build
directory with certain extensions (.h, .cxx, etc.) and makes sure that
the filename is listed somewhere in the CMakeLists.txt file of the same
directory. If the filename is listed in the CMakeLists.txt file, then
there is a good chance it is being addressed by the build.
This should help catch when header files are not being installed. It also
should help verify that test builds are being done on all files. It will
also highlight dead source files.
MSVC has a warning for using "unsafe" algorithms such as fill_n that can
easily overrun the end of unchecked pointers. The problem is that there
are lots of valid uses of these algorithms, and the signal that this is
a valid use is MSVC-specific. Even less fortunate is the fact that if
another header violates the warning, it is impossible to suppress it
because it happens in a system header file (xutility), which was included
far before the actual offending code occured. Even less fortunate than
that, a boost header we (indirectly) use sets off this warning, cannot
be suppressed, and is not going to be fixed
(https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/11426). The best solution is to
turn off this problematic warning for everybody.
These asserts are consolidated into the unified Assert.h. Also made some
minor edits to add asserts where appropriate and a little bit of
reconfiguring as found.
We are disabling the entire vectorization hints for ICC as it generates
both bad code, and dramatically decreases compile time.
The compiler does not check for aliasing or dependencies that might cause
incorrect results after vectorization, and it does not protect against illegal
memory references. #pragma ivdep overrides potential dependencies, but the
compiler still performs a dependency analysis, and will not vectorize if it
finds a proven dependency that would affect results. With #pragma simd, the
compiler does no such analysis, and tries to vectorize regardless.
As part of the work to reduce the number of copies of array handles the CUDA
backend was broken. The transportation of stack allocated classes to CUDA
relies on all member variables being value based, not references/pointers.
This correct the issue of sending references to host side memory to CUDA, at
the cost of two copies of the Invocation object.
When we move to C++11 we need to revisit this work and see if std::move
can help reduce the cost of these copies.

It used to be possible for vtk-m to say it was multiple compilers, for example
it could be both GCC and PGI, Clang and MSVC ( yes possible ), or Intel and
Clang.
This logical restructure now makes that impossible, and instead prefers a system
where we choose the most specialized version of the compiler over the most
general, where general is GCC / Clang.
Older GCC compilers (earlier than 4.6) do not support the diagnostic
pragmas that push and pop the warning levels. This change just disables
the warnings we need to for third party libraries and leaves them off.
This means you might miss some legit warnings on older compilers, but
most developers use newer compilers anyway, and the push/pop should
still work there.
Scatter in worklets
Add the functionality to perform a scatter operation from input to output in a worklet invocation. This allows you to, for example, specify a variable amount of outputs generated for each input.
See merge request !221
This has been requested on the mailing list to make it easier to
interpolate integer vectors.
There are a couple of downsides to this addition. First, it implicitly
casts doubles back to whatever the vector type is, which can cause a
loss of precision. Second, it makes it more likely to get overload
errors when multiplying with Vec. In particular, the operator to cast
Vec of size 1 to the component class had to be removed.
CUDA default constructors, destructors, and assignment operators
Several classes exclusively work in the control environment. However, CUDA likes to add __device__ to constructors, destructors, and assignment operators it automatically creates. This in turn causes warnings about the __device__ function using host-only classes (like boost::shared_ptr). Solve this problem by adding explicit methods for all of these.
See merge request !245
This now allows for even more efficient construction of uniform point
coordinates when running under the 3d scheduler, since we don't need to go
from 3d index to flat index to 3d index, instead we stay in 3d index
Previously, all Fetch objects received an Invocation object in their
Load and Store methods. The point of this was that it allowed the Fetch
to get data from any of the execution objects. However, every Fetch
either just got data directly from its associated execution object or
else used a secondary execution object (the input domain) to get indices
into their own execution object.
This left two potential areas for improvement. First, pulling data out
of the Invocation object was unnecessarily complicated. It would be much
nicer to get data directly from the associated execution object. Second,
when getting index information from the input domain, it was often the
case that extra computations were necessary (particularly on structured
cell sets). There was no way to share the index information among
Fetches, and therefore the computations were replicated.
This change removes the Invocation from the Fetch Load and Store.
Instead, it passes the associated execution object and a new object type
called the ThreadIndices. The ThreadIndices are customized for the input
domain and therefore have all the information needed for a redirected
lookup. It is also a thread-local object so it can cache computed
indices and save on computation time.
Xcode 7 warnings
The XCode 7 compiler has a new warning for unused typedefs. The Boost code we use has some instances where this warning gets issued. Suppress these warnings.
See merge request !199
This is to be used in place of BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT so that we can
control its implementation.
The implementation is designed to fix the issue where the latest XCode
clang compiler gives a warning about a unused typedefs when the boost
static assert is used within a function. (This warning also happens when
using the C++11 static_assert keyword.) You can suppress this warning
with _Pragma commands, but _Pragma commands inside a block is not
supported in GCC. The implementation of VTKM_STATIC_ASSERT handles all
current cases.
The recently added pragma to suppress warnings about unused local
typedefs caused lots of dashboard failures because many GCC and clang
compiler do not have this warning so did not recognized the pragma to
suppress it. Now only use the pragma on clang compilers with a large
enough version.
I also discovered that the check for VTKM_CLANG was wrong (at least for
the most modern versions of XCode). Fixed that as well as some uses of
VTKM_CLANG that were wrong.
XCode 7 added a warning for unused typedefs. VTK-m proper does not have
any instances of this, but there are several cases in the Boost code
that we are using. Add an exception to the third party pragmas to
supporess this warning.
In the special case where you are loading the point coordinates for a
structured grid in a point to cell map (an important use case), create a
VecRectilinearPointCoordinates rather than build a Vec of the values.
This will activate the cell specalizations in previous commits.
These changes also added some flat-to-logical index conversion and vice
versa in ConnectivityStructuredInternals. This change also fixed a bug
in getting cells attached to points in 2D grids. (Actually, technically
someone else fixed it and checked it in first. The changes were merged
during a rebase.)
I also added a specalization to Vec for 1D that implicitly converts
between the 1D Vec and the component. This can be convenient when
templating on the Vec length.
adding cell-to-point topology support and worklet
This adds code to support a cell-to-point topological mapping worklet.
For explicit cell set, there is code to calculate a cell-to-point topology from the canonical point-to-cell topology. (It is not parallelized at this point.) Most of the required code for structured grids was already in place.
See merge request !154
These cell types are inherited from VTK, but they are basically the same
as quad and hexahedron, respectively. The only useful difference is that
pixel and voxel are supposed to be axis aligned, but you cannot
determine that by the cell shape alone (at least not just from the cell
set).
A big issue with these is that their indexing is different that of quad
and hex. The development team had a long discussion about the benefits
of the alternate indexing, but after consulting with Berk Geveci and
Will Schroder from the VTK team, that indexing is not really taken
advantage of at the cell level. Thus, it is really just a nuisance in
VTK-m.
When getting cell indices in a cell to point structured connectivity, it
was previously returning a vtkm::Vec of the maximum size and setting
invalid indices to -1. This is changed to vtkm::VecVariable, which will
reflect the actual number of indices.
I thought I made this change a while ago, but I guess I missed it.
Previously, when you requested a CellShape in the ExecutionSignature,
you just got an ID stored in a vtkm::IdComponent. This change returns a
cell shape tag of the appropriate type (or generic if the type is not
known at compile time). This will allow functions called from the
worklet to specialize on the cell type better.
We have been using the term "shape" in the cell set and connectivity
classes. To be consistent, use the term "shape" for the geometric
identify of the cell everywhere.
The PrintSummary for CoordinateSystem went in an infinite loop. It was
supposed to call PrintSummary of its superclass (Field), but instead it
called itself.
The PrintSummary for Field only worked for fields of type vtkm::Float32.
To make it work for all array types, I added a PrintSummary method to
DynamicArrayHandle, and Field calls that without trying to cast to a
static type.
Move ArrayPortalUniformPointCoordinates to the vtkm::internal namespace
since it is going to be actively used in both control and execution
environments.
Replace usage of extent with simple dimensions. We have decided that
there is not a lot of value in supporting extent in VTK-m.
We want to be able to get topological connections where it is difficult
to know how many values you get each time. In this change, the type of
the vector holding the from indices is determined from the connectivity
object, and the worklet does not know the type (it must be templated).
Although you do not need to specify the max number for this value set
(you still currently do for field values), we still need to change the
type for explicit sets that uses something that does not rely on the Vec
class. The cell-to-point method also needs a Vec wrapper that allows it
to shorten the vector dynamically.
Clean up CellSet
Underneath the CellSet implementation is a set of supporting classes that manage the actual structure in both the control and execution environments. However, the implementation of these classes was a bit confusing and inconsistent. The following changes are made:
* Most significantly, there is no longer any Connectivity classes in the control environment. This functionality has been wrapped up into the CellSet classes, which is more consistent and easier to understand. (There was a definite distinction between CellSet and Connectivity, but it was subtle and difficult to understand.) This also means that edits to CellSets happen to CellSets directly.
* The set of classes for structured and explicit cell sets match. There is different functionality within, but the class naming and meaning are consistent.
* Make the class names more consistent with the rest of VTK-m class names. Specifically classes like ExplicitConnectivity become ConnectivityExplicit. Also, the words regular and structured were being used interchangeably. Now, always use structured except when dealing specifically with grids of regular spacing.
* The connectivity classes were using the nomenclature "From" and "To" to specify topological elements of links. The same concept in worklet classes were using the nomenclature "Src" and "Dest." For consistency, all references are changed to "From" and "To".
* Unlike explicit cell sets, structured cell sets have functionality shared between control and execution environments. Rather than duplicate it or create unique exposed classes, have a shared internal implementation in vtkm::internal.

The storage used will now be aligned to `VTKM_CACHE_LINE_SIZE bytes,
resulting in slightly better cache usage and load/store performance.
This define is set in `StorageBasic.h We also now detect if Posix is
available in Configure.h and will define VTKM_POSIX with _POSIX_VERSION
if it's available.
The AlignedAllocator used by StorageBasic is also STL compatible
and can be used in STL containers so user's can use it in their
std::vector and pass aligned user memory to the storage.
Most of VTK-m follows the convention of calling the 0D topology elements
"points" (which follows the convention of VTK). However, there were
several places where they were referred to as "nodes." Make things
consistent by calling them points everywhere.
Also merged some redundant ExecutionSignature tags.
Previously there was a Connectivity* structure for both the control
environment and the execution environment. This was necessary before
because the connectivity is explicit to the from and to topology
elements, so you would get this structure from the appropriate call to
CellSet*. However, the symantics are changed so that the type of
connectivity is selected in the worklet's dispatcher. Thus, it is now
much cleaner to manage the CellSet structure in the CellSet class itself
and just have a single set of Connectivity* classes in the execution
environment.
Also moved from vtkm namespace to vtkm::internal namespace. This change
is to then move the structured connectivity classes to the cont and exec
namespaces.
One of the dashboards gave yet another warning in the boost random
library. This time the warning is on unused parameters. Go ahead and add
that to the list of things to not check in boost.
The renar dashboard gave some warnings about shadowed variables in the
boost random library (version 1.57.0). This might be a bug in boost that
is already fixed (I didn't get the same warning on my gcc compile with
boost 1.58.0), but I don't see a problem with disabling the shadow
warning everywhere in boost.
On one of my compile platforms, GCC was giving conversion warnings from
any boost include that was not wrapped in pragmas to disable conversion
warnings. To make things easier and more robust, I created a pair of
macros, VTKM_BOOST_PRE_INCLUDE and VTKM_BOOST_POST_INCLUDE, that should
be wrapped around any #include of a boost header file.
Using enable_if/disable_if as a return type has a negative impact on
binary size compared to use a boost::true/false_type as a method parameter.
For comparison the WorkletTests_TBB sees a 6-7% reduction in binary size when
compiled with O3.

They were declared as in both control and execution, but this would
cause problems when the FunctionInterface contained objects that could
only be copied in the control environment. Using these methods probably
only makes sense in the control environment anyway. (They are a bit
heavyweight to use in an inner loop of the execution environment.)
The functors in the ForEach, StaticTransform, and DynamicTransform
methods sometimes can use the index of the parameter that they are
operating on. This can be a helpful diagnostic in compile and run-time
errors. It is also helpful when linking parameters from one
FunctionInterface with those of another.
This new features are now replacing implementations using the Zip
functionality that was removed earlier. The implementation is actually
simplified a bit.
The Zip function does not work when compiling with CUDA because it
forces the parameters to be in both the control and execution (host and
device) environments.
When fixing a problem where the disabled test had left some unused
classes, which some compilers picked up on (SHA
eae8921dc714c9bdb12058db365f890425291ea2), I used a preprocessor wrapper
to enable/disable the code (mostly to preserve history). However, I
forgot to leave the code disabled. Disable that here.
A couple of tests were failing with the Intel compiler due to
imprecision in comparing floating point values.
Also snuck in some minor documentation fixes in a comment for
FunctionInterface.
There is a test that tries to determine that the Invoke methods in
FunctionInterface do not add an unreasonable overhead. However, this
test is unreliable. Also, the most critical performance hit would be in
invoking a worklet operation, but that is now done elsewhere anyway.
Also reduced the maximum list size to 15 (which is the current longest
single list we have). Trying to reduce the size of the generated code a
bit, which is getting a little long.
These changes support the implementation of DispatcherBase. This class
provides the basic functionality for calling an Invoke method in the
control environment, transferring data to the execution environment,
scheduling threads in the execution environment, pulling data for each
calling of the worklet method, and actually calling the worklet.
The zip capability allows you to parameter-wise combine two
FunctionInterface objects. The result is another FunctionInterface with
each parameter a Pair containing the respective values of the two
inputs.
Being able to zip allows you to do transforms and invokes on data that
is divided among multiple function interface objects.
The Fetch class is responsible for moving data in and out of some
collection in the execution environment. The Fetch class is templated
with a pair of tags (the type of fetch and the aspect) that control the
mechanism used for the fetch.
Providing these types tends to "lock in" the precision of the algorithms
used in VTK-m. Since we are using templating anyway, our templates
should be generic enough to handle difference precision in the data.
Usually the appropriate type can be determined by the data provided. In
the case where there is no hint on the precision of data to use (for
example, in the code that provides coordinates for uniform data), there
is a vtkm::FloatDefault.
Since we want our code to generally handle data of different precision
(for example either float or double) expand the types in our list types
to include multiple precision.
Previously we just hand coded base lists up to 4 entries, which was fine
for what we were using it for. However, now that we want to support base
types of different sizes, we are going to need much longer lists.
In preparation for supporting base types with more widths, add typedefs
for the base types with explicit widths (number of bits).
Also added a IdComponent type that should be used for indices for
components into tuples and vectors. There now should be no reason to use
"int" inside of VTK-m code (especially for indexing). This change cleans
up many of the int types that were used throughout.
We have a test for FunctionInterface to make sure that calling a function
indirectly through that is about as fast as directly. On MSVC we sometimes
observe that this timing fails in debug mode. This is probably the compiler
adding some code to each function invocation. That won't happen in production
compiles, so we don't care about it too much. Make an exception in this case.
MSVC likes to warn about using raw pointers as iterators in generic
algorithms because they have been known to lead to problems. When
compiling with that compiler, wrap raw pointers in
stdext::checked_array_pointer to suppress the error and also add a bit
more checking.
Although we cannot expect every developer to have pyexpander, for those
that do the build will automatically run it and check the expanded file
in the source code. If they match, a descriptive error is given.
We don't automatically update the file because subtle problems might
occur. It is better to alert a developer to fix the problem properly.
This commit removes the usage of the boost preprocessor library to
iteratively generate templates with a variable number of parameters. It
is replaced with a template that is expanded by running it through the
pyexpander macro processing tool (http://pyexpander.sourceforge.net).
One reason for this change is to make the code easier to read. In
particular, it is difficult to understand compiler errors when they
occur deep within an iterating macro. Another reason for this change is
that the Intel compiler currently has a bug that breaks with the boost
preprocessor library.
One issue with this approach is that the macro expansion is not part of
the build process. Although open, pyexpander is not a tool most
developers will have readily installed on their system. Thus, if you
want to make changes to any of the macro code, you have to make sure
pyexpander is installed, then make changes to the input files, then
manually run pyexpander from the command line.
There is a special version of the testing methods for use in the control
environment that handles execeptions that can be thrown there. There are
tests to make sure you are using the correct version of the testing
framework, but it was broken until the last commit. Now that it's fixed,
here are two places where the wrong testing method was used.
We made this change a while ago to help with completion in IDEs.
(Completion was matching a bunch of wrapper macros that were almost
never used anywhere.) Most of the changes are in comments, but there are
a few bad macro definitions.
This will allow a faster conversion than the dynamic transform and will
allow you to define compile-time types for transformation unlike dynamic
transform or invoke with transform.
This is used with the FunctionInterface::DynamicTransformCont method to
convert a call of arguments using dynamic array handles to a function
templated on concrete types.
The FunctionInterface class is a convienient way to wrap up a variable
number of arguments and pass them around templated interfaces without
requiring variadic template arguments. It also correctly hands return
arguments.
